"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Because we tried (and failed) to assassinate a Palestinain terrorist leader:

[q]Palestinian militants had threatened revenge
attacks after a failed Israeli assassination
attempt on Hamas leader Abdel Aziz Rantisi on
Tuesday. [/q]

Big demonstration gathering at the site of the bombing, yelling out "Death to the Arabs!" and "Oslo Criminals to trial!".

so you agree if people call that an assassination?

i am curious, if you don't mind me asking, what you think of the whole roadmap idea.

Don't know if there was anyone I knew - it was right in the middle of town, so there could easily be people I know, but I won't find out proabably for at least a day until they release the names.

Define assassination, really. We tried to kill a terrorist organization's leader. I support such acts, by the way.

As for the roadmap, I doubt it will improve things. But I don't really want to get into that now, in this thread.

They are prying open the bus doors right now.

And the death count is up to 13.

The Oslo accord is generally agreed to be the turning point for the current situation, and I agree with you on the death to arabs thing - generalization is wrong.

Death to the terrorists.

Why do I get the incredibly ironic feeling that if peace is ever achieved it'll end up similar to the state of affairs following WW1.

The Germans signed the Treaty Of Versaille and junk, but having been pumped so full of "We're winning and we're right!" propaganda, the German people wouldn't accept that they'd lost. They began refering to the signatories of the treaty as the November Criminals. Hitler then used this to his advantage and rose to power, slaughtered the Jews and indirectly became the reason for the foundation of Israel.

Ahh. All I know is that in my army service, any time people began to chant "Death to the Arabs", it was put down immediately by the commanders and sergeants.

Reports of Israeli helicopters having attacked a Fiat of Hamas a leader (in the Gaza strip, I think), between 2-6 Palestinian casualties, Unclear if it was in response to the suicide bombing or not - it's quite a fast reaction if so - unbelieveably fast.

EDIT: over 80 wounded now, I missed the light/medium/serious count.
